Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original and fails to fully convey the metallic qualities of the background. Condition: This work is in very good condition. All collaged elements are stable. Close inspection reveals a few bindhis that have adhered to the front of the plexiglass and a few that have lifted slightly. Further close inspection reveals a few minute chips and losses to the extreme edges of the frame and some superficial scuffs to the plexiglass. Very close inspection reveals some media accretions and light handling marks to the bindhis in places throughout and a minute crack to the center of the extreme left hand edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
